That "ume faith, on a slightly broader basis, Is attaching to the coming August special session of congress, which is hopefully looked to as the possible pro vider of a perfect panacea for the present llnanclal flurry, panic and Ktorm. There seems to be sort of general agreement that something will ) done or. can be done to relieve the terrible pressure and lure mony from Its hiding into circulation once more. But what? "Repeal the Sherman act," say one; and "Give u free coinage of silver," Bays another. The truth of the matter 1 that neither the one nor the other will do all that Is ex pected, even as a temporary measure of relief- The needed thing is a dec laration of confidence by the people of th'e United States, whether) voiced through congress or not, that a ren dered dollar's worth shall ba returned In the form of an equivalent dollar. A far as coin Is concerned, the dol lar Is purely extrinsic; it Is a theory generally concurred In, or an Idea getv erally adopted. If It were based on a ten hour day's labor of a man; or go ing still higher in the scale of econ' omlcs, oa the productive capacity of a stipulated area of tillable Boll, It would have an Intrinsic value, easily recognized In the commercial world It does not make any difference that In India a halt rupee and Ini China twenty-five cash, i a day's wages; or that in the heart of New York cKy ground t worth ten thousand dollars a front 'foot, and In the wilderness of Arizona It goes begging at a dollar and a quar ter an acre; the fact remains that what Is desired is valuable and that which Is regarded with contempt l Invalu able To apply that natural measure of value to a standard of currency and exchange, one has to take into consid eration the prejudices of mankind; and, no matter how sound and solid an ar gument may bo advanced for the adoption of a monometallic or a hlnu-t' olllo standard, "the Invariable logic of fact" IB a bar to discussion. What Colorado, Montana, or Mexico wants cuts no figure In. the world's u mand for a certain standard, to which values, of work, property or men's lives must be adjusted- Cannot our "calamity howlers" siv this? Are the free coinage and flat money men so mad that they cannot comprehend a plain condition? Congress may pass any number of federal laws, or adopt nny rystem of pernicious finance without, in the least, giving us the desirable re lation of "good times." The people's representatives can only help tho peo ple by conforming to tho conditions which other great commercial nations agree upon. One cannot fight the many. If England, France, Germany, Rus sia, Austria, Spain, Italy, Norway, For the Next Thirty Days, To meot imperativo demands, I will ofler at such low prices on install ments, with easy piyments. that Sweden and Denmark, Holland, Bel glum and Turkey, were to Join with Asia, Africa, South America and the Islands of the sea In an agreement thati tobacco, turnips or clam shells should be current money, all the re sources, pride and wealth of the United States would not avail to turn trade and prosperity our way on a silver basis. Congress, moved by wise counsel and observent of events may, In the special session; determine to conform our mon etary standard to the ruling methods I , 1 I 1 . t ...... ...Ml .1 .....

TRUSTWORTHY STATEMENTS. A recent New York dispatch reads: "James C. II , a line looking and apparently healthy man, was observed to stagger while walking on Fifth Avenue this afternoon, and after taking one or two un certain steps fell to tlia sidewalk. When picked up lie was dead. A physician ex amined tlie body.nnd pronounced hearldisease the cause of death. A peculiarly sad feature of tho caso is that Mr. II -was on his way lo Maine, to sctllo in the homo of his boyhood. He hud passed the previous ten years in tlie western mining country, and had amassed a fortune. lfYOU have any of the symptoms given in the foliowingtestimonials you should lose no time in seeking relief. From John L. Koberts, Slatington, Pa.: "I have suficred with palpitation, irregular jmLie, faintini and smotlienng spell), pain in shoulders, side, and arms for over forty years. For twelve years have been treated without avail by prominent physicians in my neigh borhood and in New York. Growing con stantly worse, smothering spells followed one another, so my life was often in danger and I needed constant care. As my son had been cured by Dr. MM Nev Heart Cure, he sent me three bottles. The first dose gave roe instant relief. Before using the last bottle I was completely cured. Although seventy live years old I feel twenty years younger. I claim my euro to be almost a miracle." Hero is a letter from Mrs. John Kolges, f i 'in.mlirvl n " T lind been troubled with my heart and stomach for years, but for six teen months had been confined to my bed. I hail four of tho best doctors in the city, but none of them could benefit the weakness of my heart. I also had dropsy and rheumatism. I never took medicine that relieved me at once ns Dr. M'd&i New Heart Cure docs. I am much stronger. My nppctito is splendid. I gain strength with every dose. I have gained more in six weeks from your treat ment than in sixteen months from all the doctors." . " Dr. Miles' New Cure for the Heart is sold on a positive guarantee by nil druggists.

How often you hear this expression, and the ex planation that usually follows : "I am troubled with dyspepsia." The explanation is not far to seek. In the past- Lard has been used as the prin cipal shortening in all pastry, the result dys pepsia. The dyspeptic need no longer be ! troubled, providing is substituted for lard in the preparation of all food, j It is composed strictly of ! highly rehned vegetable oil and beef suet. When used ns a shortening, it produces wholesome and healthful pastry. Physi cians and expert cooks indorse it. Refuse substitutes. I Send three cents in itamps to N. K.
